Tips of the video : 1 - Your Body Is Your Instrument : Understand that your voice is created by your instrument, and your instrument is your body. 2 - Air Supports Your Voice : Breathing, air feeds our body, it actually sends the vibration the words or the song outwards. (relaxing the belly, relaxing our shoulders keeping our knees slightly unlocked when we're standing to speak or sing, we'll give you a bit more flexiblity and a bit more dynamics) 3 - Relaxation is Key : Maybe massage yourself, keep these areas around your neck, shoulders, the head relaxed (consider your body as an instrument which needs to be relaxed in order to function at its best) Tips : you can swing your arms not higher than your shoulders, keeping knees unlocked, and swing it down, you can do this 20 mins a day, breathe and relax your belly. 4 - Practice Dexterity : tongue twisters, or repeat : 10:05 or 10:11 in the video, they both great at getting you to use your mouth at different way. do it and try to think that you're talking to someone : give it some attitude ! 5 - Yawning : Yawning BUT keeping your mouth closed : by doing this you start training the muscle that are involved in the mouth, the soft palate, the voice box to become more limber and to have more dynamics. Bonus Tips - Stay Consistent : Listen 16:00 to 16:54 ! Like so others can note it if they want or Thanks you for your nices videos Mr.Darren McStay !

I was kinda hoping people would watch it through first so as my channel reaches more people. But I thank you for your effort. Was it useful to you?

@@vocabilities I don't think this will keep anyone away from watching the full video. But is pretty nice, so I dont have to pause so often to make notes. You are awesome and I love your channel. This is also a great video!

Hey Darren, old fan and recent comment-er here, You helped me out immensely about 10 days or so ago when you gave me advice justtt before my audition for a job-internship, I butchered it a little less thanks to you and they told me to come back for the advanced tests, Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Both for the awesome content and for the kindly responses You rock

[@vocabilities]

Thank you, John. Very kind words. Auditions are terribly scary and sometimes sterile environments and it takes a whole new set of skills to get them right like with all else. Keep practising and best of luck with the next set of tests.

[@gustavomatiasdossantos782]

It’d be so inspiring to hear how you or your students sounded like before the vocal transformation. It’s almost unbelievable that you built and created this great clear and strong voice you have today.

[@vocabilities]

It takes time and it continues to change. But it’s possible if you are consistent and dedicated! 😁

[@stevengreenberg4704]

Love what you’re doing. I’ve always had a high and tension filled voiced. I did take vocal lessons for a number of years which was helpful but you’re offering a much bigger picture of the necessary changes in order to reach our goal. for a man and have

It got posted before I was done. I need to implement your relaxation exercises on a daily basis and that’s my priority right now. Thanks for your help. Steve G

[@heather737]

Minute 11:15 As a working actor myself, I LOVE this bit of advice!!! Practicing HOW you say something doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the words being used (or the lines written in a script), so you've given me an exercise to consider practicing that I'd never done before....speaking any old gibberish (but in this case, of course, the gibberish serves the dual purpose of practicing one's articulation), but speaking it with different verb intentions! Vielen Dank! :-)

Great video! I am looking to speak louder

[@evalileejewelry9320]

I am a woman but I have a resonant, sort of sharp voice. I want to soften my voice and be more fluid for news reporting. I feel a tightness in my chest and feel constricted. I am not sure which series of your breathing exercises will be most beneficial. I am looking for a daily routine that will focus on this. When you say to breathe while doing some movement, I am not sure how deeply or lightly I should be breathing. Thank you for your wonderful videos!

[@ygmjphpoaifbmidhkmg]

hey can you say the name of the backround music?

[@PersistantPigeon]

Hello thank you for the advice. I always push my voice too low and find it often gets worn out. I seem to do a lot of vocal fry when I speak too. This vocal tension often causes my voice to break when speaking. Do you have advice for how to raise my voice and speak at my natural pitch? When I try and speak at what sounds like the ‘right’ pitch it feels so unnatural I can’t sustain it or talk normally. How do I make it so it feels natural to speak at my natural pitch?

[@vocabilities]

This is a hard one to understand without hearing. Drop me an email at [e-mail] and I'll give you some tips.

[@princessdiyagamer9881]

Nice

[@cryptodeveloper]

I've been watching a lot of your videos and it has really helped. Sometimes when I'm stressed (I have a lot of anxiety) it seems that I have brain fog and my voice goes soft. I don't have a naturally deep voice. Do you know how and why this happens?

[@vocabilities]

Stress causes tension. It might be a good idea to actually seek therapy or counselling to learn what creates this for you so you can then aim at eliminating it from your life.

[@amulyamishra5745]

Hey Darren ! I recently downloaded Yousician and tested my vocal range. At first, it said Ab4- Bb2 and then for the second and third time it said A2- A4. What does that mean ? I can't understand this language 😅

[@vocabilities]

It means you're singing different notes each time I think the aim is to expand the range. Try doing your warm-up first and try again. How are you otherwise?

[@amulyamishra5745]

@@vocabilities I will try that. I've caught cold and my chest is full of phlegm these days. I hope it's not COVID. I think I will recover. Thanks for asking 😊 Actually I wanted to know what does this says about my voice classification ? ..like you used words like Baritone and Bass in this video. Also you've heard my voice, so which type do you think I fall in ?

[@vocabilities]

@@amulyamishra5745 Take a look online I think there are some sites that will tell you. But its only really relevant to singers I think!

Trying to talk and sound more CLEAR and PRECISE. My problem when I try to do that, my voice gets loud or I overthink it and I lose my train of thought

Maybe you can slow down, would this help give you some space to notice and maybe adjust this as it happens?

I find my voice boring and expressionless. I really want to change it. Even if I am excited it stays the same. I dunno if this is related but I noticed after I did lots of yawning that I got double chin.
